Fruit tree predators

    3 responses

emilyfrench starts with ...
Something is eating my fruit trees. I live in Brisbane and my newly planted lemon has had every leaf eaten and two branches broken as though something heavy has climbed on it, now it seems to be starting on the next tree along, a lime. Can anyone suggest a cause or a remedy? Thank you!

Or caterpillars eat your leaves...butterflies love to put small eggs on the leaves which become caterpillars which can eat like a wolf.

If you spray the leaves hard with water from below you can wash the eggs off but there'll be new ones within a week.
